Description
|
The Wilderness Trip is a multi-day backpacking trip designed to orient students to the Walkabout Program and Jefferson County Open School. Students spend the first three days of school participating in wilderness survival lessons, working together in group building activities, learning about the school community, and planning the logistics of the trip. Each trail group consists of new students to the Walkabout Program, student leaders, and an Advisor. Although this is a physically and emotionally demanding trip, students walk away with a sense of accomplishment and deepened relationships with students and staff.
